The mortgage crisis and succeeding 2008 economic collapse are given fresh insight and explained clearly and comically in co-writer and director Adam McKay’s wonderful adaptation of Michael Lewis’ book. The performances, humor, and spot-on script make this an absolute treat; it should be a Best Picture Oscar nominee. Rated R. At Century Cinemas Del Monte, Maya Cinemas, Northridge Cinemas
